I agree that we can remove the "L: qemu-devel" entries everywhere, but
for these subsystems that have no "M:" entry, but "S: Maintained", this
now looks somewhat strange - the subsystem is "Maintained" but has no
maintainer? I think we need somebody who feels responsible to pick up
patches here...?
